Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an apparatus for generating a set of radio parameters, a transmitter and a receiver.
  • the OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) scheme is promising as the next generation communication scheme.
  • a single symbol is generated by attaching a guard interval part to an effective symbol part including information to be transmitted, and plural symbols are transmitted during a predefined transmission time interval (TTI).
  • TTI transmission time interval
  • the guard interval part consists of a portion of information within the effective symbol part.
  • the guard interval part may be also called a cyclic prefix (CP) or overhead.
  • the guard interval part includes only a portion of the effective symbol part, and thus a larger period of the guard interval part is not preferred from the viewpoint of information transmission efficiency.
  • satisfactory communication quality may be maintained under environments with relatively short propagation delay such as urban areas and indoor areas or environments available for the unicast scheme by setting a relatively short guard interval part.
  • guard interval part optimized under various communication environments. For this reason, it may be conceived that many sets of radio parameters for specifying symbols including guard interval parts with various sizes are provided and radio communications are carried out in the adaptively determined optimal symbol format.
  • signal processing corresponding to such various symbol formats leads to an extremely heavy workload, which is unfavorable for mobile stations with a relatively simple configuration. For a mobile station having no option of operating frequency (clock frequency), strictly limited signal processing is available, and thus the above problem may have a particularly adverse effect on such a mobile station.
  • One object of the present invention is to provide a transmitter and a receiver capable of dealing with both of the unicast scheme and multicast scheme flexibly for use in a mobile communication system in accordance with the OFDM scheme and an apparatus for generating a set of radio parameters for the transmitter and the receiver.
  • a transmitter and a receiver for use in OFDM scheme mobile communication systems can flexibly deal with the unicast scheme and the multicast scheme.
  • a set of radio parameters is for specifying a symbol including an effective symbol part with the same period as the effective symbol part specified by another set of radio parameters and a guard interval part with a different period from the guard interval part specified by the other set of radio parameters.
  • the period of the effective symbol part that is, a subcarrier interval is kept constant. So, even if any set of radio parameters is used, a radio communication apparatus can operate without changing signal processing schemes in the OFDM modulation and demodulation scheme (inverse fast Fourier transform and fast Fourier transform).
  • a set of radio parameters is derived so that an occupancy proportion (loss rate) of the guard interval part in a single symbol specified by another set of radio parameters is equal to an occupancy proportion of the guard interval part in a single symbol specified by the set of radio parameters. Since the loss rate is kept constant, constant data transmission efficiency can be achieved even under any set of radio parameters.
  • a set of radio parameters is derived such that the subcarrier interval and the loss rate are set have desired values.
  • the number of subcarriers specified by a certain set of radio parameters may be set to be a multiple integer of the number of subcarriers specified by another set of radio parameters.
  • a set of radio parameters with a considerably different period of the guard interval part can be derived while controlling the subcarrier interval and the loss rate.
  • a transmitter and a receiver may select one of plural sets of radio parameters depending on whether the communication scheme complies with a multicast scheme.
  • the transmitter and the receiver may include a multiplexing unit multiplexing a common channel and a shared data channel in time direction, frequency direction or time and frequency directions, wherein the common channel is provided for transmitting uniform contents to plural users and the shared channel is used for data transmission for each of the plural users and is shared among the plural users. If the shared control channel and the shared channel are multiplexed in two directions of the time and frequency directions, a frequency directional channel arrangement in a certain time slot may be different from a frequency directional channel arrangement in another time slot. Consequently, fading tolerance can be effectively improved in the time and frequency directions.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram schematically illustrating a transmitter according to one embodiment of the present invention.
  • This transmitter is typically provided in a base station, but the same transmitter may be provided in a mobile station.

  • the control channel processing unit 304 performs baseband operations for transmitting control information data in accordance with the OFDM scheme.
  • the convolution coder 342 performs encoding for enhancing error tolerance of the control information data.
  • the QPSKmodulator 344 modulates the control information data in accordance with the QPSK modulation scheme. Although some other proper modulation schemes may be adopted, in this embodiment, the QPSK modulation scheme with a lesser number of modulation levels is adopted due to its lesser amount of control information data.
  • the interleaver 346 sorts the control information data in accordance with a predefined pattern.
  • the serial to parallel (S/P) conversion unit 348 converts a serial signal sequence into parallel signal sequences. The number of parallel signal sequences may be determined depending on the number of subcarriers.

  • the inverse fast Fourier transform unit 308 performs inverse fast Fourier transform on an incoming signal, and then performs OFDM scheme modulation.
  • the guard interval insertion unit 310 generates a symbol in compliance with the OFDM scheme by adding a guard interval to the modulated signal.
  • the guard interval is obtained by duplicating a portion of the head or tail of the symbol to be transmitted.
  • the digital to analog (D/A) conversion unit 312 converts a baseband digital signal into an analog signal.
  • the radio parameter setting unit 320 sets radio parameters for use in communications.
  • the radio parameters include some information for specifying the format of the OFDM scheme symbols, and include a set of information items for specifying values such as the period T GI of the guard interval unit, the period of the effective symbol part, the proportion of the guard interval part to a single symbol and the subcarrier interval ⁇ f.
  • the radio parameter setting unit 320 sets a proper set of radio parameters depending on communication conditions or instruction from other devices. For example, the radio parameter setting unit 320 may selectively use different sets of radio parameters depending on whether communications are carried out in accordance with the multicast scheme.
